The Official Band/Project/Whatever (yours or anyones) Promotion Thread

[SymphonyXV]

Honestly, I thought it was just meh. There are a million bands that have vocalists that sound the EXACT same as yours, at least on the growls. I know you don't really care about my opinion, but if you did I'd say just tell the vocalist to stick with the melodic vocals. If you played me your song then played me a lamb of god song, I couldn't be able to tell the difference.

ok - so no connection to this band ( I WISH!!) but Turisas is coming out with a new album March 3, 2011! and you can get a really cool and cheap pre-order and thought i would share it because it is insanely cheap and with this economy...i'm broke and enjoy a good deal you get a poster and shirt with the cd for only $19
heres linkage!

I know this isn't your band but since you are advertising for them, I am guessing you have some kind of relationship with them so I will give you my feedback. I listened to their song "One More". I hope these guys don't take themselves too seriously because I couldn't stop laughing. They are not bad at all but it just sounded like the cheesiest thing I have ever heard. I couldn't stop thinking about this parody power metal band I used to be in when I was in middle school where we would dress like vikings and play this kind of music for laughs. Anyway, I definetely will not be a customer of theirs any time in the near future, but for anyone who is into this kind of stuff, I'd say that they are the masters of this genre. All they need now is a british narrator.

I can see where ur coming from, but we do have other songs that sound different. If you listen to "Simple Sin" or "Mantle for Malintent" I think u might have a different view on it (if ur so inclined lol). Always appreciate the citicism tho, thx

Attention Chicago area people! Sunday, May 15 2011, Matiias Eklundh will be in town for a clinic at the Plainfield School of Music. I saw Guthrie Govan there a year & a half ago, small-ish room, might want to get tix/make reservations as soon as they are taking them if you are interested in going...
Details as I get them, also a possible tour here in the US for Freak Kitchen.
2011 might just end up ok.... :Spin:

Please have a listen to my band Saffire =)
We just recorded four new songs with our new singer, and I feel really proud of them!
Heavy rock with a 70's/progressive/metal-twist going on.
Enjoy!

Hi guys. I'm the vocalist for Dorian Gray. We are a New England-based melodic-metal band with a myriad of influences, one large one for myself being symphX. We recorded our debut EP recently and have had the fortune to get on some great gigs with Paul Di'Anno and Death Angel and have upcoming shows with Apocalyptica and All Shall Perish. I am actively trying to get us on the Worcester MA stop on the upcoming SymphX/Nevermore/Soilwork tour.

You can check out our EP here: http://doriangray.bandcamp.com

And add us on facebook here: http://www.facebook.com/doriangrayus

I hope you guys dig our sound. Let me know what you think! Thanks.

Saffire was pretty good but not exactly my cup of tea. Nice to see some local bands though!

 

[Myke Havoc]

Just thought i'd throw this on here...

Jason (singer of Skelator) and myself have been playing in a Judas Priest cover band with members of Toe Tag, The Accused, My Sister's Machine and Mistrust and we had our first show last night. It was pretty fun, below is a short clip of us playing Green Manalishi. I think most of our set was recorded so hopefully there'll be more vids that i can spam the forum with soon.

For now, enjoy this gem of classic Priest!

 

[DoomsdayZach]

And the whole set is up. Check it out here:
